    A wise man. :-)

    I think for my own part I'm going to take a crack at
    coding up an @* or perhaps @ALL peg syntax to play
    around with. See if I can't put some code where my
    loud mouth is. Perhaps an --action argument as well,
    to allow for something like:

        svn log --action A file@ALL

    would effectively return a list of usable peg versions
    for all unique objects on the path.

        svn log --action D file@<PEG>

    would return the Deletion of the object at PEG. Maybe
    have --action take combinations like ADR or ALL effectively
    making the default log be --action AM. Thus one could
    use:

        svn log -r10:20 --action ALL file@ALL

    to query for any logical changes concerning the path "file"
    between r10 and r20, regardless of how many unique objects
    that might actually reflect.

    Thoughts about such syntax? To me it seems more practical
    and clear then the syntax suggested in issue 928
